      @@Tom2404 I mean, Alienware and Zotac have gotten some insanely small form factor gaming PCs to work, admittedly using laptop hardware. Though it's crazy that Sony got the PS2 to work in that small of a form factor. Though what you said about any cooler being too big, if I remember correctly the Nintendo Switch, as small as it is, actually has fans, of course that's going into the realm of custom hardware, but there are some insanely small CPU coolers.

      @Tom2404 5 лет назад +31

      @@Tyler-Kearney the switch has a single heatpipe made out of copper and the fan is almost as wide as the switch itself. This thing is only made to cool an arm processor, not a powerful x86 chip. But you are right, it could be possible if you use an old laptop motherboard, if you can find one that is small enought and can be modified so it actually works outside the laptop. Maybe you could use one of those small pcs you mentioned. But it would habe to be a slow pc not made for gaming.

      @Tyler-Kearney 5 лет назад +16

      @@Tom2404 there are also more powerful gaming focused alternatives to the Raspberry Pi. But to modify a PS2 Slim case to fit one of those would probably be more trouble than it's worth, and would basically be a Linux based PC that is only good for emulating maybe up to a PS2. At that point it's probably be easier and more worth the money to softmod a PS3.

    I feel like linus' videos have gotten super interesting after he bought the cnc, as he can now make some really interesting custom hardware. What I originally thought is Linus’s usual act of wasting money on over the top equipments turns out to be a very wise purchase. Now I want my own cnc. I’ll probably not gonna be able to utilize it as well tho.

      @@haotianxie6684 I've actually been looking into designing for CNC and I think it is very doable for someone who is interested. Problem being it's a huge waste of money if you don't actually spend the time to learn how to utilize it properly. My local community college also teaches a ton of classes on CNC, so maybe look around if you do actually get one. 好运!

      spakjoeXD haha thanks, I’ve also been looking in to this, and maybe I’ll tryout a couple design of my own on local Cnc shops to decide if I’m actually gonna invest in one. 谢谢

      Ademola Sodeke Not worth it. Unless they would sell the one they used for the video. Build to order would need so high price to make it worth it.
